Artist OG Score — See how early I discovered an artist

[k7l3rr]

I’d love a simple way to see when I first discovered an artist. The idea is an Artist OG Score that shows my first-listen date for each artist and how early that was compared with other listeners. Example: “First listened: Aug 14, 2021 — earlier than 92% of listeners.”

How it could work

• Use my first stream timestamp from listening history.

• Rank that date against other listeners’ first-listen dates to create a percentile and a small badge (True OG / Early / Mid / Late). Only display after a minimum number of plays (e.g., 5) to avoid one-off listens.

• Optional: Display a brief timeline of my plays alongside the artist’s growth, when available.

Where it appears

• On artist pages (beneath Follow),

• In my profile under the “Discoveries” section,

• In Wrapped/share cards (“Artists you found before the crowd”),

• As a library filter/sort (“Earliest discovered”).

Privacy and control

• Entirely opt-in with the ability to hide the badge or date at any time.

Why it helps

• Celebrates discovery, encourages following/saving, and gives fans something fun to share.

• Clear success metrics: increased artist-page visits, follows/saves, and shares.

This turns a core Spotify moment—finding artists early—into something visible, personal, and rewarding.
